Illuminating Essence
The first flower I grew from a seed was a sunflower at the age of 9 in my own little garden, complete with green worms and mulch made by my father. I grew about 8 of those majestic flowers, but they lived for about 3 months and then died.
I think they needed more sun where I had planted them, but I never forgot the joy of growing them. Later as an adult, I came to realize how important living in the light is for people. The Bible consistently uses the metaphor of light to represent truth, goodness, holiness, and God's presence, while darkness symbolizes sin, ignorance, and evil.
The brightness of this magnificent beauty has remained within me as a reminder that if we live our lives in the light we will always be true to ourselves and others.
This is why most of my art reflects the brightness of life, because the light reveals the heart and our deepest truths and convictions. -Margaret Lukasik
